We often plough so much energy into the big picture, we forget the pixels.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The trick to forgetting the big picture is to look at everything close-up.
The greatest value of a picture is when it forces us to notice what we never expected to see.
As computers have become more powerful, computer graphics have advanced to the point where it's possible to create photo-realistic images. The bottleneck wasn't, 'How do we make pixels prettier?' It was, 'How do we engage with them more?'
We're all very fond of a black box in our living room that works on diminishment of images, that spoons somebody up in a very limited way. It can be a reduction at its worst.
We forget that what matters begins with the imagination.
One thing that humans still do better than computers is recognize images.
In the age of television, image becomes more important than substance.
The megapixel war in conventional cameras has been a total myth. It's taking us all in the wrong direction. Once a picture goes online, you're throwing away 95 to 98 percent of those pixels.
I always get sick of these conversations where people are so obsessed with pixels, with high definition, and even with technology in general. I find it just dull and heartless. And so I wanted to use only the worst machines.
We have been endowed with the capacity and the power to create desirable pictures within and to find them automatically in the outer world of our environment.
